Firstly, hello to all at MRC. First post here, but I\'ve been a Rotaryhead for the last 5 years.
I have a 92 JDM RD here with some niggling electrical issues. I figured I\'d ask around to see if there is anything obvious I\'m missing or can try before I start ripping the interior to shreds.
Firstly, I can\'t get my interior lights to work for love nor money. I\'ve checked the fusebox, and despite being in Japanese, I\'ve found a fox layout in English and have changed the offending fuse (I believe it the one labelled Room) with no avail. Is the whole cluster knackered? Seems unlikely to me!
Secondly, the light behind the vent selection dial on the centre has never worked to my knowledge. I assume it\'s just a replacement bulb that\'s required, though again, any insight before I rip it out would be great.
Finally, and this is the killer, my Speedometer has completely died. All other dials and ODO display work fine, but it won\'t budge. I intend to pull it out and check of loose connections, but I am not hopefully. I\'ve read alot about blown capacitors etc. and I\'ll be honest, I wouldn\'t even know where to start if that is the case.
Anyway. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. I love the car to bits, but it\'s high time I get these niggles ironed out!
Thanks in advance!
Id be checking the earth first ....have you got power (12vdc) at the bulb to a good earth...? odo...dont know the set up on a 7...
